TL;DR: The prevalence of conduction disturbances, particularly left bundle branch block (LBBB), is strongly correlated with age and with the presence of cardiovascular disease.

TL;DR: In the setting of aggressive antihypertensive therapy, prolonged QRS duration identifies hypertensive patients at higher risk forSCD, even after controlling for left bundle branch block, other known risk factors for SCD, and changes in blood pressure and severity of left ventricular hypertrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Left bundle branch block and mortality in patients with acute heart failure syndrome: a substudy of the EFICA cohort
TL;DR: Investigation of the association of LBBB with short‐ and long‐term outcome in patients discharged after a de novo episode of acute heart failure or AHF complicating a mild CHF found an association with an increased risk of cardiovascular mortality.

TL;DR: In hypertension with electrocardiographic-left ventricular hypertrophy, left bundle branch block identifies patients at increased risk of cardiovascular mortality, sudden cardiovascular death, and heart failure.
Book ChapterDOI
Recognition of cardiac arrhythmias by means of beat clustering on ECG-holter records
TL;DR: This chapter focuses on analyzing two major aspects of Holter recordings: the large amount of data stored in such recordings and the intrinsic characteristics of the signal, which may result from problems in the cardiac system or the patient’s physical and physiological characteristics.
